What are Broad divisions of surveying or Different Types of Survey in Civil Engineering ? Discuss in brief. Classification of Surveys Surveys can be classified into two classes depending upon whether the spherical shape of the earth is taken into account or not. In survey work requiring very high precision, as in … Read moreDifferent Types of Survey in Civil Engineering

What are the sources of Errors in levelling ? What precautions are necessary to avoid them? Errors in levelling : The errors which are occurred at the time of levelling in survey. These errors may be further divided as instrumental Errors, natural Errors, Error due to earth curvature and personal Errors in Levelling field. … Read moreSource of Errors in Levelling & How to avoid in Civil Engineering

Plane Table Surveying Plane table is surveying the method of surveying by which the position of all the present object on the plane field is determined by simple observation, and plotted on a sheet. In this distance is measured by tape & chain and the angles are measured by compass or theodolite. Working Operation of A … Read morePlane Table Surveying on Civil Engineering site

Chain Surveying Chain surveying is the simplest method of surveying. In this survey only measurements are taken in the field, and the rest work, such as plotting calculation etc. are done in the office. This is most suitable adapted to small plane areas with very few details. If carefully done, it gives quite accurate results. … Read moreChain Surveying Process in Civil Engineering
